I want to get more into the fiction side of Pathfinder. I like the weekly fiction, but I want to read it on my iPad, and I really want PDF. Is the web fiction consolidated into a PDF that I can download anywhere?

If you're reading it on an iPad, the ePubs will work much better than a PDF.
If you still really want them in PDF, then the best way is probably to download a program called Calibre (it's free) and convert the ePubs.

I'm going to second Ross Byers comment. On an iPad, ePub is MUCH easier to read than PDF. With a PDF you would have to point and scroll to read. With the ePub, you just drop it into iBooks and start reading.
I read all of my Pathfinder Tales on my iPad and/or iPod now.

Edit: Also, since Ross Byers mentioned Calibre. Someone posted a link here on the boards to a peice of code that you can run in Calibre that will pull all the Web Fiction from Paizo.com into one big chapter divided ePub. You could then use Calibre to convert it into PDF format if you choose. Calibre is free and pretty easy to figure out.

thanks for the update! My goal this year to to read all the fiction, but I wanted a good way to get it.
An admirable goal! What'd make it more fun for the rest of us is to see you post a review of everything as you go through the entire Pathfinder Tales library--especially the short stories, many of which have no reviews yet.

Hmm, I was not aware of this. Having recently finished all the short fiction, I was about to move on to the novels. But if there is a lack of reviews I may take a moment to refresh my memory and give some feedback.
There was a lot of good writing and storytelling in what I've encountered so far. I figured enough people would be raving about it already. Perhaps it's time to throw my own two cents around.

That was me. The link to the code is here.
